Spell ~ USA ~ Jacksonville, Florida

Time Waves (1979)

Spell is the duo of synthesist's Jack Tamul and Joe Deihl, both based in Jacksonville, Florida. They do a fine job at emulating the Berlin School style of electronics, especially within the cosmic atmosphere category, perhaps a bit like fellow Americans: Earthstar. Though there is little in the way of sequencing... unfortunately. Quite a bit of acoustic piano adds a warm touch, though it pushes the contents towards the New Age scene at times.

Not reissued as of 2/24/25.
